A particularly bloody incident took place yesterday early morning on the south eastern coast of Chackle when member of a local militia alongside regular troops were building improvised beach defenses to hinder Rommandan landings.

In an act more akin to a display of might over tactical thinking, the Imperial Rommandan Navy sent the ten-gun 70-year old battleship IRS Monsignor Culero on a straight course against the beach, seemingly intending to crush the forces working there and strand itself as a coastal battery of sorts to bombard inland targets.

However, the bold and reckless maneuver was cut short when apparently, having misjudged how quickly the tide would lower with dawn break, the ship hit some rocks and was stuck, step angled and heavily damaged several meters away from Chacklean forces. Still, the ship began to open fire over yonder with its loud guns.

Undeterred, knowing they were actually safer closer to it than running from it, Chacklean forces charged against the beached, hulking iron beast. Soon after, Rommandan marines jumped from the vessel and engaged the attackers on close quarter combat.

Rain started to fall, and the tide began to raise, not enough to release the battleship however, but enough to seemingly trap the combatants and jam their weapons, forcing the combatants to fight with rusted machetes and blunt stones.

The fight went on for a couple of hours with slit throats, severed limbs and crushed skulls all over when finally, a grand explosion from the ship’s magazine, perhaps a result of earlier damage and reckless weapon operation or perhaps product of a precision strike by Chacklean aircraft brought it all to a swift end, 4,000 dead.

War on the beach has started with a Rommandan battleship is stranded along a Chacklean beach. War has started between the two sides on the beaches and has caused a lot of death. Chackle has ordered for its air force to take action, which it has, the country sent out a fleet to defend the beach and could push out Rommandan fleets from entering. The King stated that the war is nothing but death at this point, and as the death numbers near 1.5 million it is getting more concerning. The King also stated that the beach that had been attacked is currently freed from the Rommandan attack, and he plans on making it much more prepared for next time.

Chackle has also announced that it has started re-enforcing the northern front as it continues to get weak with the war on the front being Chackle's longest non movement war. The King stated that the country tried to flank the enemy but both sides still remained the same.

Large Refugee problems.

Chacklean northerners have started fleeing the war torn province to the closest peaceful state, Handenosaunee. The numbers are not 100% but it is projected that nearly 376'334 people had fleed the nation in the last week, hitting the peaceful nation hard. The newly added Chacklean province is very under developed and will continue that way til the end of the war, many of these Chacklean's could carry un-known diseases that could harm the population of Handenosaunee

A statement by the Imperial Chancellery has declared that an agreement has been reached with official representatives of the Empire of Chackle:

"A ceasefire has been declared and it’s in effect as of 6:00 AM this morning."

All Rommandan forces, land, sea and air are to remain in their current positions and high alert pending further orders, no withdrawal or redeployment shall occur, the only major troop movements that are authorized are those aimed at helping humanitarian causes, such as allowing for medics and supplies to reach remote civilian enclaves behind Rommandan.

No discussion on regards of the exchange of prisoners has been held as technically, a state of war still exists.

The Nuclear Issue

The Imperial Chancellery alongside the Joint Chief of Staff has declared that the real battle is about to take place: Talks on the nuclear issue, detailing the amount of yield permissible on nuclear weapons and number of devices allowed.The Chancellery has called for its allies to respect the ceasefire agreement and has formally requested that a neutral party brokers the worldwide relevant discussion on nuclear armaments.

The results of such talks are to determine whatever the war will continue or not and while analysts fear that both sides will simply use this opportunity to reorganize and resume fighting with renewed strength, at least today the region breaths a bit of relief.

Prime Minister William Greyowl of The Democratic Union of Handenosaunee recently visited a Chacklean refugee camp located in Northern Chackle near the city of Kasergrad. He was accompanied by Dominic Whitehorse who is The Minister of Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship and as well The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Cordelia Qausuittuq was present.

The Prime Minister and his delegation met with King Comrac at the refugee camp to discuss the entering of approximately 150,000 Chacklean refugees into Handenosaunee due to the current conflict between Chackle and Rommanda. Prime Minister Greyowl stated that international intervention is mandatory to aid the people that are caught between both sides and have no other choice but to flee their homes. King Comrac stated that his Empire is grateful for the assistance that Handenosaunee is offering.

The Kasergrad Refugee Camp Established By The High Chacklean Commission for Emergency Relief

The Minister for Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship commented that all of the refugees will get governmental assistance to support their transition to Handenosaunee. He added that his Ministry will be ensuring that all Chacklean refugees get immediate permanent housing all over the country. He as well said that all refugees will be Handenosaunee Refugee Agency.

Minister Whitehorse stated that naval ships from The Handenosaunee Navy will be arriving next week to transport the refugees.

The Prime Minister also stated that he wanted to clarify that numbers given by State-run Chacklean Media, he said that it is confirmed that approximately 25,000 undocumented refugees have entered Handeosaunee illegally mainly by boat smuggling. He added that the "unknown diseases" have not been reported at all yet.

The Nogai Horde has announced that their 1st Battalion is ready for action. They have immediately been contracted by the state of Hassany and will be entrusted with guard duty and peacekeeping of one of their territories.

The 1st Nogai Battalion consists of 40.000 soldiers, including the crew members for tanks, armored support vehicles, artillery, and transport units.

With talks between Hassanian and Chacklean officials over the weekend a deal had been reached with the Hassanian Royal Family investing 20 trillion dollars into the countries oil sector. This will make Chackle the worlds largest oil producer. Of course this will affect the environment badly but King Comrac stated that it will benefit the world economy and the countries GDP.

The investment will be put into extraction grounds and nearly 15 new purification plants which will be the main center point of the pollution. The new investment will give Hassany a seat in the Chacklean Oil Cooperation and will offer oil 10 dollars cheaper at a price of 65 dollars a barrel.

With the Rommandan-Chacklean war still technically going on but for all practical effects over, there has been once again a vacuum of power between the Joint Chief of Staff and the High Chancellery, which has resulted in the troops, once more, indefinitely deployed on faraway lands without much to do.

While the Joint Chief of Staff is responsible of bringing the troops back home, it refuses to do so until the High Chancellery announces a satisfactory outcome to the nuclear standardization talks with Chackle, and while a spokesman for the diplomatic organism has declared that the talks have reached an understanding for the benefit of all, no formal proclamation on any upcoming treaty has been made.

While the troops remain on their best behavior and battle readiness, a number of situations now shed light on Rommandan military practices that can only be described and bizarre, to say the least.

Known as the Penance Corps, these elements of the Rommandan Special Forces are known to be ruthless in their practices, often deployed behind enemy lines to engage in systematic brutality meant to spread fear and terror amongst enemy troops in order to demoralize them (although there have been documented cases of civilian population being indiscriminately engaged as well).

Further observation has led to a better understanding of these soldiers though. Formerly believed to be cold blooded professional killers, they have in fact turned out to be the tortured victims of an inhuman experiment.

The typical members of the Penance Corps are not professional soldiers capable of rational decisions anymore, but the broken shells of a former operatives that have been mentally broken, shell-shocked and then clinically abused by a military that has decided they can be further put to use by pumping several experimental drugs that eat away at their very humanity to turn them into genuine berserks.

It is never expected (nor hoped) to recover these forces, it is regarded a task akin to clearing mine-fields and barbed-wire, no one wants to do it, especially since these are psychotic killers that have been left to their devices in the mud and blood for weeks.

And so with another war over, a very atypical hunting season begins, as battle-hardened volunteers (which ironically are inches away from being Penance Corps material) take on the desolate battlefields to hunt for their former comrades, casualties are expected.

Rumors abound as of what happens whenever a member of the Penance Corps is recovered alive, with wild tales about them forced into ridiculous bull-fight-esque events for the entertainment of the troops being the most notorious.How can anyone know? Truth, humanity and reason are always the first casualties of war.

A massive group in the south of Chackle known as the Veviten People have demanded for a referendum to secede from the empire, they have quite a not so bright history with Chackle. The group wants to form its own nation away from Chackle and has a much different Culture, the group wants lands that are mostly filled with Veviten People and that have a large Protestant population. King Comrac stated that he will allow a referendum stating that he wants his people to have the right to remain in the Kingdom or not.

The lands are not large but do hold many tourist sites and holds large amounts of rich and valuable resources. It also holds 14 million people and only has one city over 1 million people, which most likely if gained independence, will most likely be the capital.

A historic decision has been made by the Head Bishops of the Church of Hassany. A vote was held at there bi-weekly conclave and it has been decided to send monetary aid and personal support to the Vevitan separatists. Seeing that it is important to help support and defend it's fellow protestant cousins across the region, The Church of Hassany will give its blessing and a donation of a $100 million dollars to the separatist cause to spend on peaceful campaigns for secession on the vote. In addition, mission trips will be open up to the Vivetian homeland to help aid the poor and spread the good word. Missionaries across Chackle with medical training are also recommended to volunteer at hospitals.

As people want independence in the southern state of Vestena, many of the people in that region support the whole vote. With the Government giving the people of Vestena 2 weeks to vote it has finally come in. The state is a well educated, and a very low crime rate. The GDP per capita in the state is also average with an average income of 30 thousand. As the nation prepares to see if a new state is formed here are the results.

Results

96.5% Yes

3% No

.5% None.

King Comrac stated that all the final borders had been draw and that the state will write up its own borders as well.

With Vestena coming close to the signing of its independence, many Chackleans have taken it to the streets, within the past week a vote, organized by the public has been started to counter the independence. With many of the Chackleans being interviewed to see why they didn't want a independent Vestena was because the lands could have been used for farm lands, or gold mining as the region is known to have plenty of gold under neath it. They also stated that the lands could have been used for the growing population to move into a more open region.

King Comrac stated that he will allow the public to counter the independence, stating that if the vote gets more then 500 million signings that it will be stopped. This could be record breaking with the largest vote ever taken place in Chackle had 366.7 million votes, and it was to increase minimum wage by 2 dollars, and it had passed making minimum wage 17.50 an hour. King Comrac stated that he is happy to see a slight part of democracy in the nation and proving to the world that Chackle is a free nation.

For the last week the Christian leaders of the Chacklean Orthadox Church and The Church of Hassany had a session in Hassany over theology and increasing church attendance and mission trips. It has appeared that the more and more the leaders of faith have talked, the more and more similar there faiths have appeared to be. The meeting which was suppose to last a day, went on for two weeks which ended in something shocking that has never happened before. A fusion of two major religions in the Global Federation.

The Christian religion has been named "The Simulist Church" "Simul" meaning Combined in Latin. It has been decreed that this is the true church of God and claims all responsibility and authority over all Christians. The leader of Chacklean Orthadoxy, Nimply Numavic, has been elected and appointed under the power of God the first Patriarch of the Simulist Church. The 13 head bishops of the CoH have became the First Synod, meant to help govern the religion under Numavic. The headquarters for the international religion will be a constructed palace and cathedral on the island of Dunans and will be paid for by the now combined church treasury. Once the Holy Palace of Dunans is constructed and everything internally has been fully straighten out, The Patriarch plans to construct churches and send out missionaries to, "Every known tribe and nation in the Global Federation to spread knowledge, good works, and the holy message of Jesus Christ in every community in our blessed region. Amen."

King Comrac stated that he would bring back the Chacklean Airforce's previous size when the nation was communist back in the 90's. He stated that the airforce was much larger, but less advanced, he stated that if the nation wanted to bring back its old airforce it would need to add another 18 thousand units to its 32'981 sized airforce. He also stated that it would consist of 8 thousand CR-IVG 66A, which are Chackle's finest and most advanced fighter jets, the country had just released them and they are much more powerful then previous jets.

This morning all the people living in the bunkers were issued the green light to leave the bunkers. They will all return to there homes in perfect condition and all citizens will be given a small tax break to celebrate their survival of the nuclear crises.

The Empire will celebrate the world wide nuclear skirmish as a major victory to its country and international freedom. The Imperial Military (along with the help of radical fundamentalist Christian groups outside the region) have reported the destruction of 5 enemy nations outside of the region, the most prominent being the Communist "Republic" of Caepital and Fascist Aerthys.

While Hassany celebrates a victorious war against terrorism, the government is in panic. The April Fools nuclear crises exhausted all of the Empires current nuclear arsenal and its resources to create more. "We plan on doing two things to fix our defense situation" says Head of the Department of War Victor Krug. "We plan on expanding our borders to the east and the west. We will take the rest of Hassany's James Island (eastern most island) and the northern tip of the large island to the south of James Island. To the west we plan to take over the rocky, mineral rich, east coast of Kvecvo island."

"We will also open up for trade negotiations with our friends across the seas for Trade of nuclear weapons for any commodity goods desired. Most preferably any foodstuffs due to our large supply."

Yesterday Hassanyian Rangers came in to occupy Castle Dunans in Dalenkirk. Early in the morning a naval fleet came in to support the Ranger task force to help solidify controll of Dunans. From this day on the Empire of Hassany will handle politics and life within the borders of Dunans under these reasons.

1) The government has been highly inactive to its own peoples needs. Possibly do to the death of its elderly king. His Majesty Is giving the tiny island and its inhabinants a chance to once again feel safe and be able to enjoy social services, healthcare, and public transportation again.2) Now under the jurisdiction of the Empire, a new police force will be set up to patrol and discover the last known whereabouts of the terrorist group know as Revealed in hope to disable the group before another large scale (and usually ignored) attack is performed.3) The Empire hopes to increase its shipping and trade relations having access to Dunans seaports. boosting revenue in both the island and the Empire.4) Finally the annexation is due to show displesure in the GF's lack of effort in publicly expanding the regional map to show Hassany's expantions and incorporation of Valencia.

With recent headlines of Chackle's growing oil and gas markets, it may suprise many that the market is just declining within recent months. The countries oil and gas markets have grown by 150% in the last 20 years, but all that may soon dry up. Chairman Alex Yvmen of Chackle's largest oil company which holds 95% of the countries oil and gas markets stated that growth in the oil and gas markets have grown to the point where it is no more in that much need, bringing the oil prices down from $167 a barrel to $78 a barrel.

King Comrac stated that he hopes to keep the oil prices above $70 and hopes that the world is in more of a demand, stating that it would be catastrophic to the countries economy and would put many people out of jobs. Chackle stated that it would need to create another 67 million jobs if the oil markets collapse. This would also bring the average income of the country down by 3 thousand dollars as the average Chacklean oil worker makes around 167 thousand dollars a year.

Chacklean water table see's large increase of quality in water

As the months go on, the countries largest problem in 60 years has started to cool down, Chackle's largest water table was infected with large amounts of pollution and other devastating elements. Chackle stated that the problem has died down and nearly 95% of the water table has been recovered.

King Of Chackle To Meet With New PM of Handenosaunee To Discuss Annexation by Hassany

In recent news, King Comrac of The Orthodox Empire of Chackle's has stated that he would be meeting in the near future with the newly elected Prime Minister of Handenosaunee, Thaddeus Ambrose to discuss The Empire of Hassany's annexation of The Kingdom of Dunans. King Comrac stated that the annexation was through violence and war, he further added that he does not recognize the annexation and considers it illegitimate. His Majesty as well stated that his Empire did not intervene due to the Royal Military of Chackle being fatigued and enervated. He also stated that the country will place embargoes and will discuss with Prime Minister Ambrose of how they should handle this situation.

The Democratic Union of Handenosaunee and The Orthodox Empire of Chackle seem to be getting on better terms recently and Comrac hopes to yet again gain their trust.

Chackles economy has shown massive growth over the year seeing it jump from 180 trillion dollars to 220 trillion, and it is expected to see more growth over the year. Many see the growth as a new opening hence why over 890 new businesses have opened since November and man
